We are excited to announce that Immigration and Refugee Services reached a huge milestone recently. As of July 2019, 1,000 individuals have gained knowledge and a means to connect with others through our English as a Second Language program. This rigorous program has day and night classes in both Orleans and Jefferson Parishes for eager students to learn from trained teachers and volunteer tutors. Read one of our student’s own words:
“I appreciate all the people of this institution for helping other people to improve speaking English, in special to my teachers Richard and Rosemary for your time and patience. Thank you. [This] is one of the things that I admire most in this country that helps other people. I learned a lot with you guys, and I wish everyone to achieve their dreams and goals. Also to all the volunteers. [It is] never too late to go for your dreams. Thanks, Cory”
